Can Water Mitigation and Removal Reduce Mold Infestations in Westwood?
Water leaks occur all of the time from leaking pipes or overflowing sinks or tubs. Many consumers mop up the water and let the moisture dissipate over time, assuming no further damage will occur. Water seeps into many nooks and crannies, inside walls and under cupboards. These dark warm areas are perfect conditions for mold to grow, especially with lingering moisture.
SERVPRO can assist with water mitigation in Westwood and avoid mold growth. Our experience and water sensing equipment can find water and moisture in these hard to reach areas. We use:
- Moisture sensors to assess moisture in carpets and padding
- Thermal imaging cameras to determine moisture levels in building materials
- Moisture meters to measure actual moisture content
- Inspection cameras to observe water and moisture inside cavities
Once moisture is detected, SERVPRO uses specialized equipment to dry these areas and avoid mold growth, which causes health effects for many people and structural problems if allowed to continue.
